There was a maid crawling at the door, eavesdropping on the conversation inside. Yu Xijiao came out suddenly. The maid didn't react in time and was knocked to the ground heavily.
"Three...Three girls." The maid knelt down on the ground.
"Third Miss, what is...what happened?" Mrs. Zhou hurriedly appeared outside the door. When she saw this scene, she was stunned for a moment. She hurried back slowly, fearing that something would happen.
"Mrs. Zhou, she was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping." Yu Xijiao raised her eyes, looked at Mrs. Zhou who looked anxious and anxious, and said slowly.
Mrs. Zhou's face changed drastically: "Don't worry, Miss Three, I will investigate this matter immediately."
"Thank you, Mrs. Zhou." Yu Xijiao nodded and turned to leave.
"Third Miss, Prince Xin Kangbo..." Mrs. Zhou stopped her in a hurry and turned her head to look in the direction of the main hall, hinting at Prince Xin Kangbo inside.
"Mrs. Zhou, I believe that Prince Kang Bo is here for his father's business. You don't need to come to me for this matter in the future." Yu Xijiao smiled slightly and looked at Mrs. Zhou calmly.
"Yes...I understand, I understand." Mrs. Zhou's eyes wandered in confusion.
Yu Xijiao stepped out and Mrs. Zhou stood still and took a breath.
"Madam?" The maid who was following her reminded her in a low voice. Chu Zihan walked out from the door of the main hall. Although the expression on his face looked calm, there was a bit of sinisterness in his eyes.
"Mrs. Zhou."
"Xin Kangbo Prince." Mrs. Zhou quickly gathered all the thoughts in her heart and bowed sideways.
"Mrs. Zhou, you're welcome. I'll leave first if I have something else to do." Chu Zihan said slowly, trying to calm down.
"Invite me, Prince Kangbo," Mrs. Zhou said.
Chu Zihan's face was condensed, he turned around and strode away.
Mrs. Zhou's brows were tightly knitted.
"Madam?" the maid reminded again. Mrs. Zhou sighed, her shoulders relaxed, and her body swayed. The maid hurriedly reached out to support her.
"Help me in." Mrs. Zhou murmured.
The maid helped her into the house and sat down on the chair.
Mrs. Zhou held her chest and gasped twice, closed her eyes and said nothing.
She didn't speak, and the maid didn't dare to speak. It took a while before Mrs. Zhou opened her eyes and asked, "Am I... wrong?"
"Madam, I'm afraid the third lady will be angry if she finds out." The maid Xiangcui nodded, "Mr. Zhao is actually fine."
Madam originally did not leave, but wanted to accompany the third girl to meet guests here. After all, the third girl is not a girl who has not left the court. It is always a bit inconvenient to meet a foreigner alone in the living room.
It will be better.
But I never thought that my mother-in-law would come to report that Mr. Zhao suddenly fainted. While calling for a doctor, my wife hurried over to see Mr. Zhao.
This matter cannot be said yet. The third girl does not like Mr. Zhao, and she has made it clear to the madam before.
"My cousin was fine and suddenly fainted. The doctor is still looking after him, so I have to come back." Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red and tears fell down. There were too many things and she felt overwhelmed. She was still alive just now.
A maid was caught eavesdropping, which made Mrs. Zhou feel even more anxious and irritable.
"Madam, Mr. Zhao's maid will ask you soon. Don't worry." Xiangcui said. Xiangcui actually disagreed with this cousin who jumped out of nowhere.
This young cousin looked very polite and polite, but Xiangcui just felt that sometimes what he said didn't sound very meaningful.
"My cousin has only me as a relative in Beijing. If something really happens to him..." Mrs. Zhou was at a loss, holding the handkerchief and wiping away tears.
"Madam, I want to ask you a question." Xiangcui sighed. She had been with Madam Zhou for a long time and was Madam Zhou's confidant. There were some things she felt she had to say.
"That's what you say." Mrs. Zhou said.
"Madam, you'd better explain today's matters to the third lady yourself later. If the third lady finds out what's wrong on her own, let alone my cousin, I'm afraid you will also be implicated," Xiangcui said.
"But something really happened to my cousin..." Mrs. Zhou's tears fell again.
"Madam, if something really happened to your cousin, we won't talk about it for now. I'll just ask you, what's the use of going there just now?" Xiangcui said with a serious face.
Xiangcui saw the scene in the mansion with her eyes. It was not clear exactly how she was just a maid, but one thing she was sure of was that since the third girl returned to Beijing, her wife had benefited from a sick almost
The aunt who could not get out of bed became the wife who was in charge of the internal affairs of the Xuanping Hou Mansion.
The changes in the lady's body were almost earth-shaking.
Xiangcui was very grateful to the third girl who could help Madam. When Madam left just now, she wanted to hold Madam back, but at that time Madam was so anxious that she couldn't listen to her words and wanted to look at her watch.
Young Master.
"If you don't take a look, I... won't worry." Mrs. Zhou lowered her head.
"Madam is relieved now, but something happened here with the third girl. Madam knows why Prince Xinkang came to the door, why he wanted to see the third girl by name, why there was a maid eavesdropping at the door just now, and when Prince Xinkang left, the maid
It doesn’t look good.”
Xiangcui asked all the questions, and every question showed that things were not simple.
For no reason, Prince Xin Kangbo would never ask to see his three girls, let alone have any maids hide outside the door and eavesdrop. This maid Xiangcui knows her, she is just a rough maid, how can she be so courageous?
, dare to eavesdrop on the third girl.
"I..." Mrs. Zhou was speechless, her heart skipped a few beats, and she felt vaguely uneasy.
"Madam, something important must have happened. You are going back now while the third girl is in charge. I haven't asked you where you have been. Go and explain to the third girl early, and also ask what happened." Xiang.
Cui gave Mrs. Zhou some advice and said that she used to have some ideas, but it seems that after Mr. Zhao came, she became a little different.
"Should I go now?" Mrs. Zhou's hand holding the handkerchief loosened and then tightened.
"Yes, you go quickly." Xiangcui said affirmatively.
Seeing that she was so sure, Mrs. Zhou calmed down and stood up: "Let's go to Yaoshui Pavilion."
In Yaoshui Pavilion, Yu Xijiao had just returned to the main room and sat down when she heard that Mrs. Zhou was coming. After a moment of silence, she asked Qingyue to invite Mrs. Zhou in.
"Third Miss, it was my fault just now. I was accompanying Crown Prince Xin Kangbo in the hall, but suddenly a mother-in-law came to report that my cousin had fainted, so I hurried over to take a look." Mrs. Zhou said as soon as she entered the door.
Yu Xijiao told what happened.
After Yu Xijiao listened silently, she smiled slightly and said, "Mrs. Zhou, how about I invite a doctor who is often invited by the government? Since he fainted, it is definitely not a small matter, especially for a man."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Miss Three. Thank you, Miss Three." Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red again. When she came over, she was prepared to be scolded by Miss Three. Unexpectedly, Miss Three not only didn't say anything about her, but also hired another one for her.
doctor.
The doctor we just invited was from the nearest place. I heard from the waiter that he met him just after he went out, so he was anxious and invited him in first.
"Mrs. Zhou, please ask my cousin, I will ask the housekeeper to pay more attention. Mrs. Zhou should not go there during this period. Ask her first before talking. My father may have to trouble Mrs. Zhou to take more care of her." Yu Xijiao said.
"Master Hou...what happened?" Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, then her voice trembled.
"My father had a fight with Xin Kangbo in the palace today and may be punished. I will ask the doctor to come over later. If my father comes back, I will see my father first. If my father is fine, I will go see my cousin Ling."
Yu Xijiao arranged.
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Zhou was already shocked by the news. She wiped her tears and said repeatedly, regretting that she left at that time and missed such important news. Fortunately, she listened to Xiangcui's words, otherwise
Maybe she really missed something. After hearing this news, she could not sit still. "Third girl, I will go outside and wait."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Seeing Mrs. Zhou's eager and hurried look, Yu Xijiao sighed and rubbed her brow. She was annoyed when she saw the maid eavesdropping, but now she sees Mrs. Zhou like this
, and extremely helpless.
She has already sent for a doctor. My father may not be able to escape this beating. I don’t know how the beating will be. My father’s previous injuries have not healed yet.
"Call Aunt Xu to come in and ask her to find the chief steward to prepare the bed." Yu Xijiao told Qingyue. She was afraid that Mrs. Zhou didn't expect her father to be too seriously injured.
"My slave, go now." Qingyue understood the importance of the matter and said hurriedly, and hurriedly retreated.
Yu Xijiao rubbed her brow again. Chu Zihan was not worried, but the cousin living in the house was very interesting. He actually got "sick" at this time and fainted. It was a coincidence.
"Girl, Nanny Xu has passed by." Qingyue opened the curtain again and came in.
"Let's check to see if anyone has gone to see my cousin today, or the young boy next to him." Yu Xijiao said. Things outside the house have not yet been settled, and there are things inside the house. There are internal and external troubles. This cousin
There is definitely something wrong with the young master.
"I will go and check now." Qingyue nodded, but said worriedly, "But will Prince Xin Kangbo... cause something new?"
"Ming Yue has already made arrangements. He is now taking care of himself." Yu Xijiao sneered, her eyes bottomless.
Chu Zihan left the Xuanping Hou Mansion angrily, stamped his feet on the carriage, his face was gloomy and terrifying.
"Your Majesty, shall we go back home now?" the servant asked cautiously.
"Go back to the mansion." Chu Zi said coldly, looking out the car window at the Xuanping Hou Mansion. He didn't believe that a little girl dared to really go against him.
The two families have to admit the marriage even if it doesn’t work out in the end. Yu Xijiao’s reputation will be gone, and she won’t want to marry a good one in the future: “Find someone to go to the market to publicize the marriage between the two families, just say that the two families have already had a verbal agreement.
As for the engagement, now the Marquis of Xuanping wants to reach a higher position and break the oral engagement."
If you don't marry yourself, don't even think about marrying anything good.
Chu Zi smiled coldly.
"Slave, let's go and do it now." The young man got down from the carriage smartly.
The carriage turned to the street in front of Xuanping Hou's Mansion and merged into the crowd. The young man waited for the carriage to leave, then turned and walked forward. Unexpectedly, he just reached the corner and saw a woman rushing towards him from the opposite side. Before the young man could look at it, he turned around and walked forward.
Clearly, the two of them bumped into each other...
